20D Viewfinder

[Herriot]

I have a very quick question on the size of the 20D viewfinder in comparison to that of the 10D. Basically, I haven't had a chance to get my hands on a 20D yet (I know I should walk into my local store and try it out) but for the sake of a quick answer, have Canon increased or decreased the size of the viewfinder on the 20D? I read a review where it stated that the viewfinder is actually smaller than the one on the 10D, is this actually the case?

Many thanks

I have been reading reviews in this site and I can't see anything on the viewfinder specifically, I saw mentions that the 1D MK II has a much larger viewfinder but i'm looking at mid range DSLRs and not pro models. I used the D70 recently and saw that the viewfinder was far better than the one found on the 10D, can anyone help or comment?!?!

Many thanks

Don't quote me on this, but I think the viewfinder is smaller slightly?

I do know that the mirror , pentaprism and mirror box are slightly smaller to let you use the EF-S lenses that the 10D CAN'T use

Thanks Paul, I am going to have to go and take a look for myself, if it is smaller then I am just going to have to continue waiting to make the switch to digital....

Thanks for your feedback
